The case, mobo, and graphics card came today. Those were the last parts. Everything is now spread out on the dining-room table, my roommate is muttering darkly about divorce, and I am faced with the ultimate reality, armed only with a screwdriver.

Where is Charlemagne now that we need him? :(

And, I hope, a grounding wristband!! Better than that. I slid one of our portable humidifiers into the dining room.

Or, wait a month or 2 and the humidity level will be hear 100% there in maryland. No need to worry about static electricity then.

Knowing the local climate as you do, you won't be surprised to know that I thought of that. Since it's getting warmer, and the ambient humidity isn't as low as it was a few weeks ago, I decided that moving the small humidifier into the dining room would probably be enough to suppress the ESD.
